Milton Bradley's Status With Mariners Unlikely to Change Despite Arrest

Filed under: Mariners, MLB Police Blotter

While the Seattle Mariners continue to gather information over the arrest Tuesday of outfielder Milton Bradley, it seems Bradley is in no immediate danger of having his $12 million contract for the 2011 season scuttled.

Officers from the Los Angeles Police Department arrested Bradley Tuesday, booking him under California Penal Code 422 on a felony charge of making criminal threats.

Bradley, who is going to be fighting for at-bats as the Seattle left fielder and designated hitter, posted $50,000 bail and was released Tuesday night.

Multiple sources said Bradley, who has a history of confrontational issues and who was placed on the restricted list by the Mariners last year while he took anger management classes, does not have any special language in his contract that would allow the Mariners to void his contract.
